Football

Texas has been a national champion in football nine times based on the Official NCAA Football Record Book, which names every team that a “major” selector awards a championship. Based on that publication, 1914, 1941, 1963, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1977, 1981, and 2005 are national champions.

According to Wikipedia, Texas has been recognized in media and/or institutional format as football National Champions 15 times.

  • 4 times acknowledged by Texas and the NCAA (1963, 1969, 1970, 2005),

  • 5 times recognized by the NCAA but not acknowledged by UT (1914, 1941, 1968, 1977, and 1981), and

  • 6 times crowned as National Champion by some national rating services but not recognized by Texas or the NCAA. ( 1918, 1930, 1945, 1947, 1950, and 2008).
